WPP agencies Axicom and GCI Health have been named the Best Consultancies to Work For in EMEA and the UK respectively, based on a survey of thousands of public relations agency employees across the region, conducted by Provoke Media over the past two months. Both firms will be presented with their trophies at our SABRE Awards ceremony, which takes place at The Troxy in London on April 17. Tickets and tables for the dinner are available now, as our tickets for our EMEA Summit, which takes place at London’s Ham Yards on the same day. (tickets: https://bit.ly/3ltnyR6) Building a great workplace culture—diverse and inclusive, flexible enough to accommodate a continuum of home-office preferences, respectful of employees’ mental health—has never been more critical than it is today. At the same time, diversity, equity and inclusion remains a critical issue, and the firms involved in this year’s survey provided details of their DEI initiatives as well as their other employee retention strategies. Full analysis of each winner, including employee feedback and cultural highlights can be found here: https://bit.ly/3VAy9tR

👉 The Department was proud to host our first ‘Values in Action’ awards ceremony this week. As we serve the citizen, instilling civil service and departmental values has never been more important, considering the changing context introduced by blended working and external demands for increased responsiveness.    📢 The purpose of the ‘Values in Action’ competition was to seek examples and stories of how our staff are embedding and living our values of Public Service Ethos, Ambition, Collaboration, and Quality & Delivery. We wanted to hear from and recognise employees and teams who consistently exemplify these values in their work. ✔ We were delighted to receive 31 outstanding entries from across all areas of the Department demonstrating that not only are our values understood, but also how they have been embedded into our ways of working. Twelve entries made the final short list with five winners announced at the ceremony, hosted by our Secretary General Ken Spratt. All entries received have truly inspired us and have demonstrated the impact and meaning behind our shared purpose, values, and behaviours. 💻 The Department also launched a new employee experience portal called ‘EXchange’ at the event. The portal is a one-stop shop that sets out the ‘give and take’ of being part of the Department of Transport, including health and well-being, equality, diversity and inclusion and an employee journey map aligned with our values and associated behaviours. 🏆 Congratulations to all the teams and individuals who participated this year. We are very proud of their dedication and commitment to living our values as we serve the citizen to the best of our ability. #staffengagement #publicserviceethos #ambition #collaboration #qualityanddelivery #values #awards #awardsceremony #staffrecognition

ERGO has once again been recognised as a "Top Employer Germany" and has thus been named one of the most attractive employers for the second time in a row. The renewed certification shows us all that we are pursuing – and have established – the right initiatives to be recognised as an employer with diverse opportunities and modern, stable framework conditions. After we were already very proud last year that our approach to developing the Employer Value Proposition (EVP) – i.e. the strategic positioning of our employer brand – was rated significantly better than that of other companies, this year the jury confirmed a further year-on-year improvement in the areas of "Diversity, Equity & Inclusion", digital HR work, working environment, "Purpose & Values" and "Business/People Strategy". What's more, in many of the criteria, we are better than our peer group of 160 other certified "Top Employers 2024" or are even among the "best in class". These include our “Employee Listening” measures, our “Career”/training programmes, the role of HR in “Organisation & Change”, our highly developed “Diversity, Equity & Inclusion” landscape and our “Employer Branding” initiatives as a whole. #teamERGO #simplebecauseitmatters #topEmployer2024
